FENNEL part ways with VALORANT roster

FENNEL decided to release their entire roster due to lack of success as they failed to get past both open qualifiers in the second stage.

The Japanese team formed a roster that looked very competitive on paper before VCT 2022 - Japan - Stage 2 - Challengers Week 2 - Open Qualifier. Things didn't go as planned and they got swept by Crest Gaming Zst in the Challengers Week 1 Open Qualifier Semi Finals. In their second chance, FENNEL reached the final stage in their group but this time got swept by DetonatioN FocusMe after a great competition, 14-12 on Ascent and 13-8 on Haven. It was the end of the road for the newly-formed roster.

During the run, Kim "JinboongE" Jin Won held a 1.22 rating and led his team on the field. He played Raze nine times and KAY/O two times. The South Korean player also held a 258.27 ACS to help his team on the battlefield. Tonbo followed his steps with a 1.16 rating and interestingly, he picked six different agents. With Chamber in his hands, Tonbo held a 1.57 rating and 2.0 K/D. It looks like the coaching staff will remain with the organization.

FENNEL’s VCT 2022 - Japan - Stage 2 - Challengers Week 2 - Open Qualifier roster was:
